This offer is good through January 31, 2013, so you've got time. However, if you don't have the Pro version of Windows 8 and you want WMC, you'll need to pony up $69.99 to get the Windows 8 Pro Pack. Something to think about as you ponder your OS upgrade plans.

Helen said: Comments,Helen,Request product key under the link given. Go to control panel and select windows update. Look to the bottom left of the panel and the 'add features' is here. I now have windows media centre added, whether I use it is another matter! Hope this helps anyone in the UK

Agathaa andrews said: Comments,Agathaa andrews,But we here in the Uk with windows 8 pro don't have the "add features" installed.
